Intel has made available a new Wireless Bluetooth update developed for several of its adapters, namely version 21.30.0 which makes sure users won’t experience short audio distortions during Skype call, and add general stability improvements and optimizations.

In addition to that, the current release will also remove some bugs that caused problems in certain situations, removes the Yellow Bang sign in Device Manager after sequentially enable airplane mode, and fixes other issues as described in the Release Notes below.

Regarding the supported hardware, the 21.30.0 version is suitable for Intel’s Tri-Band Wireless-AC 17265, 18260, and 18265 adapters, as well as for the Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165, 3168, 7265, 8260, and 8265 (+Desktop Kit) models.

Moreover, the update is also compatible with the Wi-Fi 6 AX200 hardware, Dual Band Wireless-N 7265 controllers, the Wireless-AC 9260, 9461, 9462, and 9560 devices, and the Wireless-N 7260 and 7265 products.

When it comes to operating systems, version 21.30.0 is targeted at 32- and 64-bit variants of Windows 7, 8.1, and 10 (for IT administrators), as well as for Windows 10 (for end-users). However, know that not all adapters mentioned above are supported on each OS.

As far as installation goes, the process is straightforward: save the appropriate package suitable for your system configuration and bit variant, run it, and follow all instructions displayed for a complete and successful upgrade.

In addition to that, once the installation has finished, it would be a good idea to perform a reboot to allow all changes to take effect properly. If this task isn’t requested automatically, make sure to carry it out manually.

Considering all aspects mentioned above, download Intel Wireless Bluetooth Driver 21.30.0 that is valid for computer configuration, apply it, and constantly check our website to be aware when a newer version is available.
